I absolutely adore cross stitching. It is what I would chose to do any day of the week and twice on Sunday. This is my cross stitch journal.

EH 1875 Week 3

Well another week has just flown by. I didn't get much done around the house, and I do have a "to do" list longer than my arm. But, I did get a lot of stitching time in. I was able to complete 3 whole pages of this lovely sampler. Though I was booking right along, which I guess I am, except when I figured out there is over 30 pages to this chart. Oh, well it keeps me out of trouble, even if it does keep me from doing housework!

I also started a new take along project. It's called the Family Name Sampler by Nancy Turner of the Victorian Motto Sampler Shoppe. I thought it looked very Moria Blackburnish, which is why I purchased it. I tried to start it on Tuesday, when I and my partner in stitching crime, met with the cross stitch group. But....I figured out that I can not stitch and talk at the same time. I ended up ripping out the beginning of the border. However, I did manage to catch up a bit, on Saturday, when it was such a beautiful day here in Northern Virginia, that the hubbie and I decided to just sit on the back of the boat. I stitched.
